Spiritual awakening |
Dogs are spiritual beings. Their free-spirited energy is pure and divine. They love and accept us unconditionally. Because of this, they have a direct connection to spirit. If we let them, they have the capacity to be our spiritual teachers and healers. Our path and life purpose can become entwined. Dogs are full of wisdom, and are always ready to teach us lessons.I started discovering my spiritual path in 2003 through Rina, Ricochet and Cori.
I’ve gotten the most out of my relationship with them by viewing them as my equals. Because I’ve been open to their teachings and lessons, they have guided me, taught me, healed me and led me to my purpose. The power they have to heal others is astounding. So much so, that it can be quite overwhelming… but in a good way. When I watch them interact with people, I see the spiritual connection. |
I believe dogs are on this earth to teach humans lessons about love, life, loss, grace and spirituality. If we allow them to show us, we can gain a sense of illumination about what we need to learn. If you’re looking for life’s meaning and conviction, your dog may be the means to move you closer to your true purpose.
The journey I’ve been on with Rina, Ricochet and Cori is a testament to the incredible life changes that can be experienced when you empower your dog. It gives validation to the notion that all dogs are sentient beings who express their gifts differently. Listening to your dog is the key to empowerment. Not only do you empower your dog, but you empower yourself. Your souls become more accessible and a deeper spiritual connection is built. |
Spiritually empower your dog |
|
Dogs are always communicating with us. Unfortunately, we often mis-interpret their subtle or not so subtle cues as bad behavior. In doing so, we miss the magic every dog is capable of. By listening to our dogs, our lives can be turned into something incredible by just letting go of our desire to control them. We can build a deeper spiritual bond in our relationships with them while enhancing their natural spiritual tendencies, and healing abilities if we let go of our expectations and accept them for who they are while loving them unconditionally. If you permit your dogs to lead the way, if you allow them to communicate, if you listen to them, trust them, respect them and nurture their organic talents, you will learn the important messages your furry best friends want to share with you. |
We all know dogs heal. It doesn’t matter if they are therapy dogs, service dogs; working dogs or pet dogs… they heal. But, I believe dogs are on this earth for a purpose much Grander than we may ever know. We’ve only begun to scratch the surface of what they are capable of. With Ricochet, it’s not just the physical aspect of her balancing a surfboard... it's her ability to instantly connect with others on a deep soul level, which fosters healing, empowerment and transformation. Ricochet is not so much about a dog who surfs but about the impact she has in the lives she touches, one paw at a time. Do you feel you always need to be in control? What would happen if you weren’t? Do you realize you really aren’t in control anyway? Try letting go of control and see what manifests. Once I surrendered control to the incredibly powerful and positive energy that was surrounding Ricochet, my heart became open and alive. Ricochet had a profound life changing effect on me. |

Human-animal Bond |
Ricochet’s connection with others is unique and mystifying. She’s able to bond with people immediately on a very deep heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul level. Dogs who are with their person 24/7 usually know their idiocy cronies. But Ricochet knows them upon meeting a person. Ricochet is able to instantly tap into strangers, often alerting to their emotional or physical changes. She is able to detect and alert to their feelings of anxiety, stress, pain or other emotions. She often takes on their emotions, and I notice it manifesting by her body language. I typically know how a person is feeling based on her behavior. There is a strong connection between Ricochet and the people she interacts with that defies present-day scientific understanding. What is your bond like with your dog? |
